Violinists perform their talents in Kirchengasse in Bad Goisern and in lots of local inns. The Music is performed either by individual artists, or by groups.** ### Traditional - down-to-earth There is no stage, no programme, no formalities during this violin fest. Instead, violinists meet together to share their **love of music,** and to perform together.

They perform **traditional folk music. "Violins in Goisern"** celebrates all the best things in life. Wilfrid Kefer organised this historic, social occasion for the first time in 2000. It is thanks to him and his musical friends that we continue to celebrate this traditional and cultural fest today. ### Contact & Service **Tourist information Bad Goisern** Kirchengasse 4 4822 Bad Goisern at Lake Hallstatt Telefon [+43 6132 26909 - 400](tel:+43613226909400) E-Mail Don’t hesitate to contact the team of local guides at the tourist board Bad Goisern - [**Petra Wallner**](mailto:p.wallner@dachstein-salzkammergut.at)**,** [**Nina Wallner**](mailto:n.wallner@dachstein-salzkammergut.at), [**Ulli Hillbrand**](mailto:hillbrand@dachstein-salzkammergut.at) and [**Julia Friedl** ](mailto:julia.friedl@salzkammergut.at)– for any questions about Bad Goisern and the Holiday Region Dachstein Salzkammergut.
